Female Hotel Clerk Shoots & Kills Robber/Rapist

[pitbull88]

I was driving through Columbia, SC today returning from Myrtle Beach. Radio story about a female hotel clerk who shoots her attacker...happened early Monday morning. Score one for the good guys/gals and the .22 caliber. Link to the story below.

No way she had a .22
The bullet would have bounced off his shirt.

Good for her. And +1 for her boss who said she could carry at work.

Good for her and her employer for allowing her to be armed at work. Her being allowed to carry saved her life.

Some mornings you wish you'd just stayed home.
Glad it turned out as it did.....

Great news that the employer made the right decision and put his employee's safety ahead of political crap!

 

[Shadow]

glad she had her gun

Thats one the lawyers wont be able to get off with a reduced sentence

Another jackass no longer with us. Good job to the clerk

Good to hear a story where things turned out OK. Good to hear that her employer let her be armed, +1 for Days Inn.

I like happy endings.
Good riddance d-bag.

 

[Dyerbill]

Glad she's okay and the pos will not rape anyone else...........now I feel better about my summer carry Beretta 21-A.

Glad to hear Days Inn, her boss, and to the cleck for taking steps to protect herself from the threat. And no DA with political motavations to charge the clerk for defending herself. And one less dirtbag in the world. Good that if it had to happen, the good guys win.

Good for her... more women (and men) need to realize that the world is a big, bad place, and the only person looking out for you, is you!

I think she just misread his business card. Clearly he was a therapist, not the rapist.

 

[Kitty]

Good for her, who knows how many other people she has saved from that POS. And a big +1 to Days Inn for allowing her to exercise her right to protect herself.

I would say this corporation needs to hear from people that they did the right thing.

 

[Kitty]

I think she just misread his business card. Clearly he was a therapist, not the rapist.

Victim of spell check?

 

[foszoe]

If a .22 dropped him imagine what a .25 would have done!

 

[Scutter01]

Victim of spell check?

It just goes to prove the importance of proofreading your copy.

 

[cbseniour]

More people are killed with 22's than any other bullet.
One in the chest now thats shooting.

My wife did that gig for awhile when I first met her. She was scared most nights by herself.

Glad this girl made it safely home.
